单词 | -logist |
释义 | -logistcomb. form an ending resulting from the addition of -ist suffix to nouns in -logy comb. form, forming nouns with the general sense ‘one who is versed in ——logy’. It is now the only living formative with this function, the older equivalents -loger, -logian, -logue occurring only in very few words (most of which are obsolescent). The formation is mainly English, though a few examples, as étymologiste, chronologiste, have existed in French from the 16th or 17th cent., and others, as zoologiste, appear first in the 19th cent. This entry has not yet been fully updated (first published 1903; most recently modified version published online December 2018). < comb. form |
